Abstract

An optical probe with associated disposable polymer sheath for near-infrared optical interrogation of fluids within bioprocessing vessels by means of transmission or transflection spectroscopy provides for the determination of quantities and parameters of substances in fluids contained within bioprocessing vessels. Associated methods for use of the optical probe and associated sheath to determine quantities of substances in fluids and parameters of fluids during bioprocesses are provided.
